Abstract With the development of space technology, the ability of manufacturing in space is a necessary guarantee for a long-term space mission. To achieve the repair and maintenance of spacecraft structure in space, a metal additive manufacturing method named resistance heating metal wire additive manufacturing process has been proposed in this work. During the experiments, the wire and the base plate are short-circuited, the current output from the programmable power source flows through the wire and the base plate to generate resistance heat, and then the wire begins to melt and transfer to the base plate. A real-time synchronization system has been used to record the current, voltage and image of metal wire synchronously, to study the melting process of metal wire by resistance heating. The direct current and pulse current with different amplitudes which were supplied by programmable power source have been used to study the effect of the current style and value on the melting process and transition behavior of metal wire. The change characteristic of the resistance in the wire and base plate has been analyzed during wire melting, to study the relationship between the current resistance and the wire state. The effect of gravity on the wire melting process has been studied by the wire transfer experiments at different space locations. The results show that when the metal wire was heated by the constant current, the total heat of metal melt could be controlled by controlling the current value, but it was difficult to precisely control the heating speed and the heat input. When using pulse current heating, both the heating speed and the heat input could be precisely controlled by pulse frequency and pick value. In the melt transfer stage, the constant current provides a fixed force on the molten wire, but the pulse current makes the molten wire swing by the intermittent force. The real-time resistance of metal wire during heating could be used to reflect the melting state of wire in both current styles. On the ground environment, the surface tension and electromagnetic contraction force make the melting wire against the gravity and transfer to the base plate, which illustrated the feasibility of using this process in space environment.
